    Let’s assume they’re worthy of your trust, and notify the DVLA. You should then get confirmation within 3 weeks. If you don’t, contact the DVLA and explain.[/QUOTE]

    And lose a month's refund of vehicle tax, i wouldn't wait.

    Forgive me for not being clear the sale was to an owner of a motor trader company ... but it was a private Sale, so he bought it privately for his own use not for the company.... sorry it got confusing there

    he is a motor dealer , he gave you a receipt with garage info , or his own private house?

    he cannot be dealer and private at same time

    Maybe £0 tax, but the fine for failing to notify change if keeper is the same, whether the tax is free or £600.

    Showing insured, your insurer may take a while to remove your policy.

    Your responsibility to notify the DVLA.
